The input for the calculation is included below. Unfortunately I don't
think I can post the full output because the file is too large. I doubt
that this problem is a result of the system size, as the calculation
involves just 88 atoms. I am running it on 256 cores, and the same
calculation has finished in 63 minutes on a different cluster with the same
number of cores. Thank you for your help.
